Did adobe install the adobe plug-in?

How can I tell if my computer was hacked by the new Adobe Flash Player Plug-in Virus.
Adobe recently requested to install an update and I tried. I do not think it installed.
Right after that my computer started acting up: The gear ineterfered with searching by stopping scrolling. I could not shut down or get out of the program. This continued for a couple of days and now has stopped.
I read that if the Adobe Plug-in was successful it is not repairable. I am not that computer savvy.
Help please from anyone.
Thank you.

What version of Mac OS X are you running? If you don't know, choose About This Mac from the Apple menu.
I can't say whether that Adobe Flash Player update was legitimate or not, based on the limited information you have provided. However, I think that it's unlikely that you are infected with anything, and that the problem that you had was related to something else. I would recommend trying the things in my Mac Performance Guide.

I've installed the Adobe Reader Plug In. Yet every time I click to see a PDF, it opens another browser and it is blank. The Browser reads about:blank. How can I fix this so that PDF's open in the browser?

I AM TRYING TO INSTAL THE ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENT 10, IN A NEW APPLE COMPUTER, BUT IT COMES A NOTE SAYING THAT THE INSTALATION WAS NOT ABLE TO INITIALIZE, AND THAT I SHOULD DOWNLOAD THE ADOBE SUPPORT ADVISOR TO DETECT THE PROBLEM. I DID IT BUT IT SAYS THAT IS HAS BEEN DISCONTINUED,

start at the top and work your way down applying applicable fixes until your problem is resolved.
if cc (win): https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-application-failed.html
if, your error is:
"Installer failed to initialize. File not found." or "Installer failed to initialize. This could be due to missing files."
first, rename OOBE Folder to OOBE.old.
to find OOBE:
64 bit win OS: Program Files x86\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
32 bit win OS: Program Files \Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
mac os: HD>library>application support>adobe>caps
mac os: USER>library>application support>adobe>OOB
if that fails or isn't the exact error you see, uninstall, clean (http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) and reinstall.
if you're using a dvd to install:
copy the disc contents to a desktop directory and install from that directory.
if you're using a mac:
1. Try to Create a new user account in Mac with Administrator Priviledges.
2. Login to the New user, Navigate to Mac HD> Application> Utilities> Adobe Installer folder, Locate products like Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Adobe Air and un-install them
3. Navigate to User Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
4. Navigate to Mac HD> Library> Application Support> Adobe and move Adobe to Trash.
5. Start the installation again.
if everything applicable above fails, check your installation logs:

I just bought and installed the Adobe Illustrator. I would like to know how long can I use the product before an extension is needed?

I just bought and installed the Adobe Illustrator. I would like to know how long can I use the product before an extension is needed? And on how many computers can I install this product? Thanks.

What version exactly did you buy? If you bought CS6, then the license is perpetual and doesn't need any extension. If you bought CC, then you need to renew your plan every year. You can install each Adobe software on 2 machines with a single license for non-concurrent use.

How can I get a pdf. to open in Safari, all i'm getting is a new window with a black, blank page, instead of the pdf., and I don't want to save the file to the desktop, Safari didn't use to do that, and I don't have Adobe in the internet plug in folder.

I inadvertently installed the Adobe Acrobat XI Pro on my laptop as a trial. It has expired and I want to remove it.

I inadvertently installed the Adobe Acrobat XI Pro on my laptop as a trial. It has expired and I want to remove it and use the previous version that I had on the machine before the install which was a full version of Adobe Acrobat. Please provide me with the steps to complete this.

You can uninstall in the usual way (Control Panel). You will probably then need to reinstall the older version, which the trial most likely removed.

I installed the Adobe Reader on my ipad from the app store. I bought a subscription to transfer pdf files to word, excel. No Russian language in the settings. This is very bad!

You already posted this five times; and you already have a conversation with Adobe staff going on in the ExportPDF forum.

Try to install the Adobe Creative CS4

hi everybody
I just try to install the Adobe Creative CS4 but apparently it can't install until I quit the DeliciousSafariAgent -
I try to kill the app from activity monitor but it doesn't work, can you help me to kill or uninstall this agent?
thx

Wow! There's a completely useless plugin. You can manage your bookmarks just as easily by clicking the book icon near the top left of Safari.
Look in the /Library/Internet Plugins/ folder for something there that is named like Delicious Safari. If nothing else, check the documentation that came with this thing and see if it has an uninstaller, or a text file that tells you what it installs and where.
Edit: Well, that's easy enough. It comes with its own uninstaller. Run that and then install the Adobe software.

How do I install the Adobe PDF Pack Desktop Printer

How do I install the Adobe PDF Pack desktop printer?

If you’re running the standalone version of FM, then the “headless” Acrobat comes with it; reinstall FM to repair that part. However, if you already had a full version of Acrobat installed, the FM installer may have screwed it up – you’ll have to uninstall all Acrobat(s) and reinstall.
